Predictive windshear avoidance radar

Hello,
just trying to get some info on Predictive windshear avoidance radar. Does anyone know what type CX uses? Is it actually a function of the airborne WX radar using doppler shift on the precipitation or is it more along the lines of using EGPWS and Mode 7? And which type uses which, or is common equipment used on all types?

In addition to this, does anyone know where the radar beam itself gets its power from?

Thanks.
